The world has gone mad.
I cannot get over the insanity of our collective acceptance of drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro, drugs that hijack the body’s natural functions and force it into an artificial state of fasting.
I’ve been in the nutrition space since 2012. Back then, when I began talking about fasting, the pushback was intense. People railed against the very idea. I was trolled online, with one woman even telling me that I was “promoting eating disorders.”
And yet, here we are in 2025, and the mainstream has embraced the concept of forced fasting, not through discipline, not through understanding how the body works, but through injections.
The Purpose vs. The Profit
Let’s be clear: drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro have a very real, very important place in the treatment of diabetes. That was their primary purpose.
But what shocks me is how they’ve been adopted en masse for cosmetic reasons, simply to lose weight. This, in my view, is a testament to the power of relentless pharmaceutical marketing. Drug companies are making billions, and the public has swallowed the message whole.
Meanwhile, the truth is swept aside. People are not being educated on how to eat differently. They’re not learning how to nourish themselves. Instead, they’re told they should stay on these drugs for life. A perfect business model for the companies, not for the humans being experimented on.
The Unanswered Questions
What happens in the long term? No one knows. And that should terrify us.
- Will the digestive systems of users develop cancers because food is moving so unnaturally slowly?
- Will the gut be permanently altered, unable to function once the drug is stopped?
- Will the pancreas, already burdened, simply give up?
We’re already hearing about an association between Ozempic and rising cases of pancreatic cancer. These are not trivial concerns.
Nature’s Forgotten Solution
The irony is painful. Why would anyone choose an expensive, risky drug over a natural protocol that has existed since the dawn of humanity?
The answer is simple: advertising and money.
There are no multimillion-dollar campaigns promoting fasting. No glossy magazine ads. No influencer deals. No pharmaceutical reps taking doctors out to dinner.
And yet fasting, this no-cost, no-equipment, innate system you were born with, does the same thing, without the side effects.
Where I Stand
I’ll continue to promote fasting, education, and natural solutions. I’ll continue to show people how to understand their bodies and heal them, rather than outsourcing their health to a syringe.
And maybe, when the tide inevitably turns, I’ll start seeing ex-users—people who have been failed by the pharmaceutical experiment—as customers and students, ready to truly learn how their bodies work.
Until then, I’m left to watch this car crash unfold.
